While Memory Loss
18. Linda Visits
Inside the workspace.
Mr. Harial and Mr. Herman sat on the sofa staring at Adler wanting to know what he wanted to talk about so called them into the study.
“Papa, Uncle, Adler called you here to give me Grandpa's last message before he died" Adler said.
”Papa still have last message? Didn't the lawyer tell you all about papa's will before?" ask Mr. Herman confused.
"This message was only told to me in advance" Adler said.
"What message?" ask Mr. Harial.
"A oral wedding vows with an old friend of his previous grandfather. Grandpa wants the promise fulfilled" Adler said.
“Really, is there such a thing? Why didn't you tell me before?" said Mr. Herman frowning.
”That's because this promise has been very long. Grandfather suddenly remembered this promise and found out that the family of his friend was in trouble. Grandpa wants with this marriage our family can help him" explained Adler.
Adler had investigated the family of an old friend of grandfather's before. And he knew that the family company was experiencing financial problems and threatened with bankruptcy.
“Only Adrian and Arfan are unmarried in our family. Who among the two would want to be betrothed like this?" said Mr. Harial staring at his sister is always the parents of the two children.
”Papa and Uncle don't have to worry about who's getting married. I told them this. Adrian disagrees, so only Arfan can do it.“
”Adler just wishes Uncle could persuade auntie not to make trouble later. I know aunt doesn't like Arfan very much. But, Arfan remains a member of this family," Adler continued to look at his uncle.
“You just calm down. Uncle will definitely persuade your aunt. Arfan is also Uncle's son. Uncle couldn't possibly ignore the events of his entire life" nodded Mr. Herman.
”Adler plans to propose to the family next week. If Uncle wants, Uncle can go with me" Adler said.
Adler knew his uncle and aunt would definitely not want to go propose to Arfan. Therefore he will go alone as the leader of the family.
Mr. Herman smiled wryly. “You know how your aunt. Uncle will definitely not be able to leave. Uncle can only trouble you to do this. You take it easy, Uncle will definitely add a wedding gift for Arfan," said Mr. Herman.
”Oh, yes, Uncle. Uncle should pay more attention to Adrian. Adler thought Adrian was hiding something" Adler recalled Adrian's behavior at the restaurant at the time.
“Ah, yes. Uncle will definitely pay attention to Adrian. Adrian is older than all of you, but still has no partner. It's time Adrian also started a family" agreed Mr. Herman.

"Tok .. tok .. tok ...."
“Mistress, there is a friend of the Madam below waiting for the Madam," cried the waiter while knocking on the door.
Natsya walked open the door. "My friend? Who?" natsya asked the waiter after opening the door.
”Say her name is Linda, Madam," replied the waiter.
“Linda. I'll go see him. Yes, you can bring drinks and snacks for my friends," pinta Natsya.
”Good, Mistress."
Natsya went to the floor so glad Linda came to visit him.
"Linda" exclaimed Natsya smilingly as Linda approached Linda and held her hand.
"How are you staying in this house? Did they treat you well?“ ask Linda to worry.
Linda is worried that Natsya will be bullied in this house by members of the Adler family. Natsya was just an ordinary girl from the village, moreover now that she lost her memory, unable to fight them.
Linda has met Ms. Selena several times and she knows very well that Ms. Selena is very proud and arrogant. He likes to show off wealth and insult others who are inferior to him.
What if Miss Selena treats Natsya badly?
”Em. Adler's family is very kind to me" Natsya nodded, recalling the other treatment he had for her while staying here was fine.
Papa Adler liked him a lot, as did Adler's uncle and brothers. They were very nice to him. Only Selena's aunt would often look at her unwell, but Selena's aunt never did anything to her.
This family's treatment of her was far better than the treatment her mother had remembered. Mommy was treated very badly by daddy's family. If only the daddy family could be the same as the Adler family, mommy and she would definitely not be separated from daddy and sister.
“The lady, ma'am, please drink her tea," said the waiter who came to serve tea and snacks according to Natsya's orders.
”Come Linda in drinking. You must be thirsty waiting for me and talking to me here" said Natsya.
“Yes, I happen to be thirsty. There's still a lot I want to talk to you about. I've got to moisten my throat first." Linda took the teacup, blew it slowly, and sipped it slowly.
The two talked a lot. Natsya also takes Linda around to see her new residence. Linda accompanied Natsya throughout the afternoon until and returned in the afternoon.

In the evening.
”You look sting happy today. What's up?" Adler sat on the bed pulling Natsya into his arms.
“I'm so happy to meet Linda today. She came to visit and Linda told me a lot when we were in high school. Although I still can't remember it, hearing Linda's story made me imagine it. It must have been a lot of fun" said Natsya leaning against Adler's chest while playing with her fingers.
"If you like, you can ask Linda to come here often" Adler said, letting Natsya play with her finger.
”Yes. Linda invited me to meet her friend who she said was my friend also at High School. We are friends. Can I go tomorrow?" tanya Natsya got up from Adler's embrace and looked at her.
“Do I need to be with you?" tawar Adler's.
Natsya shook her head. "no need. I know you're very busy. There's my Linda, you don't have to worry."
”Good. Then go to bed now so you can be fresh tomorrow" Adler said.
“Em," muttered Natsya and lay on the bed.
Adler turned off the lights and lay down next to Natsya. Natsya turned to face Adler and closed her arms to embrace him. Since living in this house with Adler, Natsya developed the habit of hugging Adler before going to bed.
Adler smiled and also hugged Natsya. He likes Natsya like this. Speaking frankly revealed his heart and depended on it. That means Natsya already trusted him completely.
Unlike before where Natsya hid many things from her. Although the two were married, liked each other, and were very close. Adler knew Natsya was still a little estranged and never revealed her true heart. Natsya was still a little wary of him. He knew they knew him too briefly and got married immediately, so naturally Natsya was still closed to him.
She only hoped that after Natsya recovered her memories she would remain like this to him. The carefree and smiling Natsya, not the cold and estranged Natsya.
